Help Find Daisy...
Daisy was lost on 7th September 2017 from the AL1/AL2 area - St Albans, Hertfordshire. She was sighted on 1st October in Bell Lane, London Colney and was resting in a field alongside the M25. She has since been sighted on 11th December in the Brickett Wood area, St Albans. HOTS, together with a small group of invaluable volunteers, have spent many nights on stakeouts, but alas, to date have had no success.
We have Trackers, Trappers and Drones all on standby, we just need a confirmed sighting... Daisy was a Spanish street dog that was rescued by HOTS in February 2017. To this end, she will know how to hide, how to hunt for food and to a degree, she will know how to survive... She is thin by nature and the cold winter weather will now be against her. Maybe she has found an unused shed or barn to shelter and find warmth? Her owner, an 84-year-old gentleman, is utterly heartbroken and daily takes long walks looking for her, calling for Daisy but sadly, she does not come... She has a sweet and loving nature but is extremely timid and frightened, having not experienced many things until she came to the UK including cars, lorries, motorbikes, children...even grass! Please do not approach Daisy if you see her but contact HOTS as soon as you can - (07483) 854372 Thank you

A close shave for Rubble!
Mischievious Rubble attended his first proper haircut appointment and we are all simply delighted with the results!
All along, there was a handsome prince hidden beneath the rough and ready kinda guy!
When Rubble was found in an emaciated state - he cried in pain if you merely tried to gently stroke him and try to offer him some love. His coat had to be shaved off completely to offer some relief and we have been patiently waiting for it to grow back to the point where he could be groomed and trimmed to show off the stunning boy he is and always has been!
We asked his new owner if his behaviour went in line with his new appearance, the reply, quite simply was "No, he's still the cheeky, crazy little boy that we love!"
Well, you wouldn't want him any other way!
He's now enjoying the life he has been blessed with and his humour, loving ways and mischievousness totally shine through, stronger each day. His new family absolutely adore him!
What an awesome little chap!

Time to Party!
HOTS would like to wish beautiful Bliss a very happy 5th Birthday!
Bliss was found together with several other Miniature Schnauzers and various breeds of dogs in appalling emaciated states, abandoned in an apartment having been used for breeding. Once in HOTS care the dogs were nurtured back to life and shown the love they deserved.
A team member of HOTS instantly fell in love with Bliss when she arrived into HOTS UK care and simply could not refuse to offer her a permanent safe and loving home.
Bliss has the disease Leishmaniasis, but that does not cause her owner any concerns following a course of treatment which has got the disease under control and Bliss will now continue to live a life as any other healthy, normal dog.
Happy Birthday Bliss, you so deserve all the spoiling, love and showers of kisses that you will receive. x

No Trouble Rubble!
For the first time in his short life, Rubble was introduced to the snow!
Together with his new sister Winnie, they had great fun, running, leaping and tossing the new white stuff that offered endless hours of playtime and games!
Friends and family joined in the playfulness building a snowman, which amused Rubble and Winnie alike - their efforts of help were greatly appreciated as several Snowman's heads were jumped on and squashed in a flurry of exploding snow!
We truly hope that all your dogs enjoyed the snow and had many hours of merriment, but most importantly of all, we hope that everyone kept safe and warm.

Will you be my Valentine?
HOTS are looking forward to welcoming two Rottweiler Crosses, Betty and Wilma, into their care during February 2018.
Born in 2013, at just five years old, you can see from the video that they are happy and friendly girls!
They have beautiful temperaments and gorgeous characteristics.
We are looking forward to finding them their new forever homes and whoever those lucky people are, they are guaranteed a lifetime of love.
We know that these girls cannot wait to snuggle up on the sofa, embraced in endless cuddles!
Please contact us to find out more details, or complete an Adoption Application Form and we will be back in touch with you as soon as we can.

It was mutual instant love when Zoe met Coolaz, she simply could not resist his charming ways and his need for lots of cuddles!
Coolaz is Zoe's first ever dog, however, her partner Jaedon has had dogs all his life and simply loves the challenge to train a new puppy!
Coolaz has been renamed Gsxr after a motorbike, as their passion, other than Gsxr, is motorbike racing, something that Gsxr will also grow to appreciate as they go weekend camping to follow the sport.
Gsxr was one of the puppies found in the hole near a derelict castle in Spain and has certainly come a long way. He is keen to learn and loves to please. Car journies are his passion together with long walks around nearby lakes.
We wish Zoe, Jaedon and Gsxr the very best for their future which we are confident will be full of many happy stories, which we look forward to hearing all about.
Coolaz Revs Off!

On 25th January 2018, HOTS were kindly given two free tickets to attend the amazing Absolute Dogs 2018 UK tour in Birmingham.
We love and totally respect how they approach things!
Fun 3-minute games with a purpose and your dogs don’t even realise they’re learning - can you think of a better way for your best woofing friend?
In this evening seminar, Tom & Lauren shared the key concepts, skills and games that turn Naughty But Nice dogs (we all own them if we’re honest, even if it’s just mildly naughty) into superstars, whether as a canine companion or a competitive sports dog.
They arm you with the knowledge, skills and games - making living with Naughty But Nice dogs effortless and stress-free!
It’s all about reward-based games and strategies that have transformed thousands of dogs across the world, building bombproof and focussed partnerships.
Lauren & Tom say: “What we have found is that so often with Naughty but Nice dogs, the best learning and insights happen when you don't have your dog with you, and you have the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the training opportunity.”
We had such a fun time - met some new people, a couple of dogs (of course) and got lots of new training games to help the HOTS family members in our care now and coming in the future. In fact, we’ve been so busy putting them into practice and building optimism in them that we’re only just able to tell you about it!
​
They have lots of free e-books to help you start and many YouTube video's.
Here are some useful the links that may help you:

Not much is yet known about these happy guys, but the video speaks for itself!
They each have a special someone...
They are just waiting to be found...

Rubble makes the couple!
We are so chuffed for Rubble!
Kerry and her husband Manuel contacted HOTS looking for a medium-sized dog and we had just the perfect chap for them!
It was instant love with this comical little guy and following a couple of "meet and greets", Rubble's future was all but decided, other than then meeting his new bestie and new sister, gorgeous Winnie!
At first, Winnie was unsure if her humans were allowed to be shared, together with her toys and her favourite sofa, but these feelings were soon dismissed as soon as she realised she now had a permanent playmate! Her toys, sofa and humans soon became theirs and their new life together began...
He was introduced to the chickens in the garden and very quickly it felt like they had all been together for years, Rubble making himself at home and loving everyone and everything!
We truly wish Kerry, Manuel, Winnie, Rubble and the chickens a very happy future together!
Thank you for coming to HOTS to expand your four paws family! We are confident that there will be many funny stories to come, Rubble will ensure that!

Daisy's Search Continues!
Sweetheart Daisy will be four years old on 10th March 2018 - we need her home to get her healthy and well to celebrate her Birthday!
Rescued by HOTS Rescue from Spain as an unwanted, unloved, neglected and frightened Spanish street dog, she soon stole the hearts of HOTS and became a very special member of our ever-growing family.
Following high winds resulting in a fence being blown down, Daisy went missing on 7th September 2017 in the AL1/AL2 area and was last sighted on 11th December still in this area.
We truly believe that she is alive somewhere...either using her instincts to survive or maybe someone has taken her in...but we need her home, back in the care of HOTS...
Daisy will be frightened, so if sighted, please DO NOT APPROACH - contact HOTS immediately on 07483 854372 - we have specialists on standby, just waiting for that call to safely catch her and return her to Hots...
If you live in the AL1/AL2 area, please be vigilant. Maybe you know a friend in the area that you could share this video with?
Please help us to find Daisy...we are waiting for that special call...

Help Stanley Survive!
Stanley is in the early stages of a life-threatening condition known as Leishmaniasis, and is in urgent need of immediate treatment. Unfortunately, the first month is the most expensive as he has to have daily injections to get the disease under control, after which he can live a normal, healthy and happy life by just taking 1 pill a day.
He is a nearly 2-year-old Dobermann who is an absolute sweetheart that sadly has spent the start of his life not getting food or love, you can see just how underweight he is in his pictures which looks worse in the flesh. Before his rescue, he would have gone to bed starving, cold, neglected and lonely. We simply have to give him this chance at life! He has so much love to give, absolutely loves his cuddles and has just got his appetite back having been so used to carrying on with his day with those severe hunger pains.
He loves other dogs and children, lapping up all the attention he can get. He is a wonderful example of this magnificent breed and everyone who has met him has fallen deeply in love with this gorgeous boy.
We need to start his treatment next week (w/c 22/01/2018) but we cannot do this without your help

Forever Cuddles with Cody!
Full of character, beautiful Cody has gone to her new home for a lifetime of fun and love!
HOTS was simply elated when Kay and family offered Cody her the chance of a fantastic new home. Kay and her sister travelled from Scotland to come and meet her new family member, quite simply, it was mutual instant love!
Cody was more than keen to hop into the car and start the journey to her new home, where her new big brother Siren was waiting.
It has been one of the most emotional rehomes as secretly HOTS had fallen for this beautiful Dobie with her sweet and loving nature all mixed up with a typical wicked Dobie sense of humour!
Kay is keeping us up to date with Cody's adventures, so watch this space for future stories, we are guaranteed a laugh!
Thank you, Kay and family, from the bottom of our hearts!

Follow Paysey's journey...
This beautiful Dobie was found frightened, starving and roaming the streets...everyone turned their back on her and ignored her sad plight...she was on her way to the pound where her outlook was irrevocably and immensely bleak...no one came for her...no one was there to help save her precious life...she was helpless...
A rescue in Europe contacted HOTS and we have the amazing opportunity to help this valued and treasured girl.
She is now safe and being fostered by a HoTS member in Europe, BUT she is not strong enough to travel...she is excruciatingly and disgustingly thin...she is heartbreakingly scared - her trust in humans has been lost...
She has been in our care for a few weeks now and we are truly delighted to announce that she is slowly putting on weight and starting to trust again...love, patience, time, understanding and care...she is slowly starting to show her true colours - she is still in there - a Dobie with warmth and love to give...many magical and heartwarming moments are being and still will be experienced as she travels her road to recovery and rehabilitation...
We are praying that she will be strong and well enough to travel to the UK before Christmas, but we will keep you up to date...this will take time and she has as long as she needs until the time is right...​
Please pop back to our website and follow her journey...we are determined to have a truly happy ending!
Every single donation received by HOTS completely goes towards the welfare and rescue of dogs that come into our care. We truly appreciate each and every offer of help, without which we could not do what we are passionate about, saving precious lives...
Music by The Weeknd - “As you are” - simply perfect and so, so true...

For the love of Lola!
What a fabulous day when Lola met Tracey and her amazing son Ty.
Already owning a gorgeous Dobermann called Charlie Bear, this family simply needed a Lola in their lives!
Following meet and greets, Lola's future was decided, quite simply how could they refuse? It was mutual love all around and Lola displayed her sense of humour, bunny hopped around and sealed the deal with loads of cuddles! Job done!
Lola was then to meet her new big brother Charlie Bear. You've probably guessed it, but it was love at first sight! Playing, scheming and sleeping together, it was pure magic! They are now the perfect partners in crime and we understand keep everyone on their toes!
The family enjoys walks and games together all combined with masses of Dobie cuddles and love, simply perfect!
Huge thank you to Tracey and Ty for offering this beautiful baby Lola the life she deserves. We love hearing about your escapades and hilarious stories which we are confident will continue for many years!

Smurf finds his new home!
Laura's dreams were all fulfilled, together with Smurf's, when their paths crossed and it was instant love!
Having been introduced to Dobermanns, Laura decided her life would simply not be complete until she had one of her own! Well, along came Smurf, a very handsome blue and tan Dobermann born in March 2017 and the rest, as they say, is history!
Smurf joined the HOTS family in July 2017 and he truly is a miracle Dobie...shortly after coming into Hots care he was diagnosed with Pneumonia. Even though he joined us in July it was incredibly cold and wet, something that poor Smurf just could not cope with! His outlook was bleak as the HOTS Vet called to say those terrible words "We do not think that he is going to make it..." Heartbroken, emotional and anxious that this was the end of his sad, short life, both HOTS, the Vet and Smurf fought on. Following a two day stay in the hospital, Smurf started to pick up and returned to HOTS care, where round the clock attention was given combined with, needless to say, masses of cuddles!
During this horrific time, Laura decided that Smurf was the boy for her!
Smurf has beaten all odds and is now the healthy, fun and hysterical puppy he should be. He attends Dog Training classes and is working towards his Kennel Club Good Citizens Award - go Smurf!
Never a dull day passes with this amazing boy and we look forward to keeping up to date with his hilarious stories together with many years of laughter and love! Thank you, Laura, for offering him an amazing life.

Dal Finds A New Family!
Wearing a massive smile with a twinkle in his eye, Dal, who has now been renamed Domino, joined his fabulous new home this week.
​
Pauline and family have had many dog members join their home over the years, but had an empty space in their home and hearts, just waiting for the right pooch to fill that gap. They immediately contacted HOTS after seeing an advert for Domino looking for his new home as he “melted their hearts”.
​
Domino has been taken to a beautiful home that includes a huge garden containing a pond which he found to be particularly amusing as he jumped in and waded about, grinning from ear to ear! They also own holiday accommodation right on the beach and are looking forward to taking Domino for what will be, his first ever family holiday by the seaside, running along the vast beaches and paddling in the sea, then back home to snuggle up.
To sum it all up, Domino has found his slice of heaven and we would like to thank Pauline and her family from the bottom of our hearts for offering him this outstanding opportunity. We are confident you will have many, many years of fun, laughter and love with Domino and look forward to hearing the many stories that you will have to tell. Thank you.

A New Start For Ray!
We are truly delighted and simply over the moon!
Gorgeous Ray proudly sat in the back of his new estate car with a happy smile on his face as he left for his future amazing home with Paul and Jack on Sunday.
Having owned and loved many breeds and being true dog people through and through, Paul and Jack spent the day with HOTS and were totally taken by Ray with his stunning personality and ginormous ears!
Ray will be enjoying his new life with his Bedlington Terrier brother, Rizzle. Not only will they be sharing their toys with each other but beautiful walks together along the vast beaches in Merseyside.
Upon returning home they can then snuggle up on a deep rug in front of the glowing wood burning stove. Pure heaven for Ray and so, so deserved. We would like to thank Paul, Jack and Rizzle for offering this handsome, gentle and loving boy his opportunity for happiness. Welcome to the Hots family!

Smurf Goes to Puppy School
This beautiful blue and tan Dobermann, Smurf, has just been to week 2 of his 6-week puppy foundation classes with a local kennel club certified trainer. Along with his human mummy, he'll eventually be working through all levels of the kennel club good citizens awards.
Smurf's a very clever boy who absolutely loves to learn and aims to please with that beautiful Dobie goofy smile on his face. Tonight the class started with showing they'd all done their homework with name recognition, focus on owners and recall as learned last week. Once that was out the way it was time to learn something new, and so began the first step of walking to heel. Everything was going well until treats were dropped from the various owners around the room without realising, then it suddenly became a game of who could vacuum up the dropped treats first. If there had been music it may have been mistaken for a maypole dancing event. It was absolutely hilarious. Heel work will be Smurf's homework for the next week in time for week 3 and with a bit of luck, all the humans will be able to manage the treat holding so there are no extra temptations!
For now, he's jumping, running and bouncing his way home for the night looking forward to what next week will bring and eventually achieve his certificate.

HOTS on Tour
With a warning of torrential rain and thunderstorms, HOTS was not deterred and ventured to the fun Aras Dog Show in Marston Moretain, Bedfordshire on Sunday 17th September.
Loaded with treats, dogs and a slight promise of some sunshine Hots were delighted to be on the road again, leaving dark clouds behind them!
Gorgeous Elli (Dobermann) stunning Ray (German Shepherd) and beautiful baby Smurf (blue and tan Dobermann) were delighted to be joined by Tracey with Smurf's sister Lola, a wonderful and emotional Hots family reunion!
To everyone's surprise with the exception of a slight shower, the afternoon remained dry to the extent even sunshine was very well received. This reflected everyone's mood as Smurf and Lola entered several classes in the dog show, alas not to win any rosettes on this occasion, but Smurf proudly walked away wearing his medal having been presented with a special award. Taking part and supporting the event was the order of the day together with giving all our dogs the amazing opportunity to socialise, mixing and mingling with many people and other dogs, receiving loads of cuddles and helping to raise awareness of Hots.
It was fabulous to also meet Craig with his gorgeous Springer Spaniel, Hector. Smurf chose to adopt Craig and simply use him as his armchair! This was following Smurfs entry into the "Best Fancy Dress" disguised as "Super Dobie!"
HOTS would like to thank Aras Dog Training for their invitation to a fantastic afternoon full of fun, laughter and of course, some beautiful dogs! Memories to cherish for always and we truly look forward to supporting your next event. Thank you x

To a local pet store, we were dragged along,
Straight to the stand with his favourite Kong!
Folk fell in love with this gorgeous boy,
How could we resist, yes, he got a new toy!
A dog nervous child, approached with her dad,
We said "Oh he's friendly!", this made Ray glad!
Dropping to her knees, giving hugs and a pat
Ray loved it all, by her side promptly sat
She wished she could take care of this precious lad
She stayed by his side whilst begging her dad
The magic of Ray worked its wonders again
As staff of the store soon friends they became
Ray is so special, that's easy to see
He asks "take me home" so please choose me!

Two Happy Chappy's
Just a quick update! One of our recently adopted dogs "Diesel" who was given a permanent home in July by Alan Smee and his family and has taken to his new owners and surroundings as if he's lived there since being a pup. Alan said that Diesel had everyone wrapped around his furry paw from the moment they took possession of him, adding that his handsome face is matched by his noble nature; like a saint, he is always happy, but assumes an expression of sorrowful disappointment when denied a piece of roast chicken, which smites far deeper.
Alan kindly keeps us updated on the "adventures of Diesel" telling us of all the activities that they get up to each day. It makes us so very happy at HOTS to know that a dog that had been badly mistreated and was terribly undernourished to the point of starvation is now thriving because of the love and care offered by his new family. Diesel is now gaining all his lost muscle and is looking strong and healthy, it just goes to show what real kindness can do towards helping such a beautiful dog back on the road to recovery.
Alan and Diesel are now joined at the hip, where Alan goes so does Diesel, out for long walks in the forest or just playing in the garden, you can see the utter joy and happiness on this dogs face because of the amazing friendship that has been forged.
This is just one case of the many happy endings that we are so proud to play a part in at HOTS Rescue.

So Cute
Beautiful Elli the Dobermann and handsome Ray the German Shepherd have become the best of friends over the past few days whilst being fostered by HOTS. This is amazing to watch as Elli was so nervous and apprehensive with not only human attention but also very wary towards other dogs, but due to lots of love and patience she has, at last, come out of her shell and the results are truly wonderful.
Following a careful introduction of the two dogs, it soon became clear that they simply wanted to play with each other and snuggle up together on the sofa!
The magic of this relationship continues to unfold and become more and more colourful each and every day with their confidence growing, together with their trust not only in each other but with us too. A truly heartwarming and fun time is being had by all at HOTS!
1st September 2017
Happy Mr Bumble
Great news for Mr Bumble! Packing his bag with as many tennis balls as he could possibly find, he left for his new fantastic home.
With mixed emotions, we waved goodbye to this stunning dog. He had woven himself firmly and deeply into the hearts of everyone at HOTS and there he will remain forever!
During his stay in HOTS with love, care, understanding and patience Mr Bumble transformed from a extremely frightened dog who would not even step one paw into the home, hiding and making a secret den in the garden for himself, to the most confident chap who happily snuggled up on the sofa for you to receive his ever-ready cuddles and affection.
HOTS was delighted to be able to offer this miracle dog his opportunity for happiness and safety.
We would like to thank Ben and his family for contacting HOTS, taking time to meet Mr Bumble and offer him the life he so rightly deserves. We are confident you will have many years of fun, laughter and love with our outstanding, super special boy

Ray Joins HOTS
If you are looking for a stunning 2 years old German Shepherd to re-home and join your family then Ray is the boy for you!
Our hearts skipped a beat or two when Ray joined the HOTS family. From the very first moment of meeting Ray we realised just how super special he was as he greets you with a smile simply wanting love and play, he is keen to learn and desperate to please, quite simply a perfect addition to any family. He needs an active family who likes to go on rambling walks and have the time to give to this incredible boy.
Ray was found homeless and roaming the streets, starving, frightened and craving affection. Being rescued from a kill station HOTS have pledged to find him his new forever loving home.
Please help us to help him and make his dreams come true, we promise you will not be disappointed.

Eight Blue & Tan Dobies Arriving
HOTS was contacted and asked to help a litter of mainly blue and tan Dobermanns from Europe.
The first four puppies arrived with us in July and the long journey to safety began...
One of the puppies sadly demonstrated signs that he was unwell and shortly after arriving at HOTS he had an appointment with our vets. It was identified that he had sadly contracted pneumonia and was immediately admitted to the hospital. Pneumonia in young dogs travelling is quite a common occurrence and for this reason, extra precautions and measures had been taken to ensure they were transported as safely as possible.
We cannot thank our incredible vets enough, whom the founder of HOTS has used for many years - The Vet Centre in Maids Moreton, Buckinghamshire.
For your incredible patience, unlimited knowledge, love and care and always going the extra mile!
They have saved and been given a full quality of life to so many Rescue's that others would have given up on...Thank You!

Sapphires new start
Such an amazing end to a long, emotional journey!
Thank you, Sharon Wallace for offering this beautiful baby girl Star (aka Sapphire) the opportunity of love and happiness - simply the perfect match! x
Thank you, Kay Barry, for all your help, patience, true passion and love for saving lives - you are simply the best ever and truly amazing! x
Following a very long, stressful and heartbreaking wait of 4 months, frantically fundraising and sourcing her safety in Spain, eventually, Star (aka Sapphire) joined the HOTS Dobie loving family last Wednesday!
Huge shout out goes to beautiful Star as she happily set off to her new forever loving home with Sharon Wallace and family.
What a perfect match! It was instant love on both sides as they met for the first time.....a very emotional time and not one dry eye was left as they embraced each other - simply meant to be!
Have the life you so deserve you beautiful girlie - be happy, love loads and laugh often - we are sure you will!
We understand she was forced to sleep on (well actually in!) the bed with Sharon - not! Typical Dobie! Lol!
Thank you, Sharon, for offering this gorgeous baby the opportunity of happiness and love x
